    Quoted from pincoin:

    I have a friend with a new car dealership, other dealers are offering over MSRP for trucks he has in stock! Very tight market on stuff right now.

    That kind of sounds liKE, oh don't know, ...FLIPPING?!?

    I took my 2012 Soul in to the local KIA dealer for service on Monday. Looked at the new cars.
    The lot was half empty, No Niro's or Rios, No K5's, No Soul EV's, Most of the Forte's were in my "Favorite" color: Fleet Sale White, Only a few SOULs, a Couple of Stingers and a limited number of Seltos's.

    Everything had a Marked-up price of $7,200-$14,000 mark up.

    Looks like I'll be putting off buying a new car for a while.

    Quoted from cottonm4:

    All the car lots around here are spreading out their inventory to make the lots look fuller than they are.

    My dealership pushed most of their inventory towards the front of the lot with a few vehicles in front of the showroom. Big empty area between the two.

    Quoted from Grayman_EM:

    COOL! My aunt and uncle when they were married had a Pacer but a red one. He never could get over the fishbowl effect of it I guess. [quoted image]

    There's a group of Israeli researchers that should apply this to a pacer:

    Quoted from PinMonk:

    Does it have the bypass button that turns the "feature" off until you turn off the car?

    At my workplace we have Ford Transit vans that do have ability to "turn off" the no idle feature.

    Quoted from ShinyBall:

    Crazy times...I have a 2020 colorado zr2 orange crush that I bought new july of 2020..my dealer is offering a BUYOUT for $400 more then I paid for it.
    I LOVE this truck...but Damn! that is hard to resist..(that color has been discontinued for 2022) love it or hate it it..I happed to love it.
    [quoted image]

    Generally, I think orange doesn't look good on most vehicles, but on that body and with that trim it looks good on that truck.
    You should still hold on to it. How much would it cost you to replace it, and how soon could you get a replacement?
